Lesson plan: 1) cold call on students to explain the x and y axis. Then contrast the first pair of cities by asking “On your birthday, list what your five senses would experience in the two locations. 2) Google earth fly to the first two locations. Do the slide while students take notes onto guided notes. 3) Repeat #2 for the other pairs of cities.

Attention teacher: Students' notes will look like this:

Warmup, Staple in your six graphs please label the six graphs: Iowa Rome Iowa Iceland Iowa Winnepeg, Canada Purpose: Different countries have different CLIMATE. Why?
4
Today we will LOOK AT Google Earth FOR CLIMATE IN ROME, ICELAND, & WINNEPEG COMPARED TO IOWA

water isn't only good at storing heat (as we saw in the Rome / Des Moines example above), it is also good at moving heat around the planet. There is a current of warm water that is heated in the Gulf of Mexico and then flows NE to Iceland. This "Gulf Stream" carries a lot of heat to Iceland, keeping it from getting too cold in the winter time. 2 nd Pair

cool air from the arctic and the warm air from the Gulf of Mexico often meet right around here over the middle of the state
